use XCrysden to create your own path in k-space for the bandstructure plot

go to the Bilbao crystallographic server to see the Brillouin zone for your space group

follow the steps suggested by W2WEB

Betreff: [Wien] Regarding bandstructure

Resp. all
I am facing one problem in calculating the band structure. I am using the wien2k code for my calculations, so when i calculated the band-structure it shows the direct band gap nature but the previously calculation where they use the Quantum-ESPRESSO code shows indirect band gap nature. I tried to plot with same symmetry points (VBM Y Z M G X) but unfortunately it does not exist with me. the structure is monoclinic (space group # 12).
So please help me.
Regards
